It is mainly involved during labour and lactation but it has recently also been found that OT is involved in social behaviours like bonding and feeling empathy. During the last couple of years, the interest in OT has been raised and due to the matrix complexity, it is ver

Financial crises are recurring phenomena and studying how economic parameters affect outcome and recovery processes will most likely remain an area of intense research also in the years to come. The scope of this paper circulates around the causes and effects of two crises in the period 1985-2013 and their separate effects on the economies of Denmark, Sweden and Finland. Moreover, the main variabl

I dagens samhälle ställs allt högre krav på organisationer och dess förmåga att vara flexibla och anpassningsbara. Torts det slutar inte sällan förändringsarbeten i ett misslyckande. Forskningen kring kommunikation i organisationsförändringar har påvisat viktiga faktorer men är trots det fortfarande ett relativt outforskat område. Genom sju kvalitativa intervjuer och en netnografisk studie har vi In today's society there are increasing demands on organizations and its ability to be flexible and adaptable. However, many changes ends in failure. Research on communication in organizational changes has proven to be important factors, but is still a relatively unexplored area. Through seven qualitative interviews and a online ethnography, we have done a study that investigates employees exp

Automatiska förlängningar av avtal innebär att en ny bindningstid inträder om konsumenten inte senast vid viss tidpunkt säger upp avtalet. Att konsumentens passivitet är den omständighet som gör att den nya avtalstiden inträder, har bland annat gjort att sådana förlängningar jämförts med negativ avtalsbindning, vilket svensk rättsordning inte accepterar. Situationen är emellertid annorlunda när paAutomatic extension of contracts means that time-limited contracts are automatically extended unless the consumer terminates the contract a certain amount of time before it is to expire. The fact that the consumer’s inactivity is the reason why the contract is being extended has even led to a comparison between such automatic extensions and an illegal form of contracting called negative contract b

The recovery of ‘waste heat’ from industrial and urban processes could meet a significant share of heating demands in urban and semi-urban areas. Replacing conventional heat sources in district heating (DH) systems with recovered heat could decrease primary energy inputs in a sector that globally relies to 90% on fossil fuels. Yet, despite the environmental, social, and economic benefits of waste

Is the management of Type 1 Diabetes best left to the medical sciences, or do the social sciences have a stake as well? In ‘Sweet Blood Surveillance,’ I push back against the perceived domination of scientific objectivity to make space for the subjective experience of diabetes in the maintenance of glucose levels through a collaboration with medical technical objects. To accomplish my task, I crea

Can constructed wetlands be used to fight cyanobacterial blooms? Cyanobacterial blooms are more than just a nuisance that prevents swimmers from making the most of the warmest months. Cyanobacterial blooms can cause a wide array of problems such as polluting freshwater reservoirs and causing fish die offs, owing to their ability to grow rapidly and release toxins which are harmful to both humans

“The code that guides the Path” Geosmin is a volatile metabolite that smells like the earthy odorant that is mostly predominant after a heavy rain fall; what produces this intensive surge of geosmin in the air is from the spore producing family streptomycetaceae. Not only do these bacteria produce a scent that most people find pleasant to smell, they also play a key role in modern society. Why th

Background Coronary artery disease is one of the most common causes of death. A common cardiac examination is to give a visualization of the myocardial blood flow by injecting a radio pharmaceutical and detect the radiation with a camera. The camera has for decades been using thallium doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) as the detector material. New detector materials have been developed because of the

Problemställning: Till följd av Bergendahls Foods tillväxt de senaste åren har företagets transportplanering blivit allt mer komplex. Planeringen sker i dagsläget manuellt vilket gör att slutresultatet kommer allt längre från det optimala. För att anpassa planering och transporter till den ökande efterfrågan krävs en grundlig genomsyn av transporterna. Studien ämnar därför göra en kartläggning ochProblem: The manual transportation planning at Bergendahls Food has recent years become increasingly complex due to the growth in demand. In order to adjust to the changes, Bergendahls Food requires a thorough mapping of their transportation activities. The lack of supporting IT-system obstructs the ongoing transport review why this case study aims to map and analyze the transports in order to inv

CITED1 as a potential marker of treatment response in breast cancer Background Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer in women worldwide. In the clinic, breast cancer is generally divided into hormone dependent and independent form, based on whether tumor growth is driven by a certain hormone or not. Generally, patients with hormone-dependent breast cancer have a better prognosis compare
